To consider an application for a new premises licence under the Licensing Act 2003 made by the following:

Applicant: Shane Fazackerley on behalf of Extranjero Ltd

Premises: Rumpoles, 22 Bridge Street, St Ives, Cambridgeshire PE27 5EG

To Grant the licence subject to the conditions agreed with the Police as they promote the licensing objectives and they also largely address the issues raised by the interested parties.

1. It is considered that for the nature of the operation door supervisors will not normally be required, however the need for SIA presence at the premises will be risk assessed on a regular basis by the licence holder. A record of this risk assessment shall be kept at the premises and made available on request to an authorised officer of the Licensing Authority or the Police
2. Staff must have completed their alcohol training (covering relevant licensing legislation and prevention of harm) prior to being authorised to sell alcohol. The training is to be carried out at least once every 6 months and written records of the training must be kept and made available for inspection by Cambridgeshire Constabulary or an authorised officer of a responsible authority for inspection upon request.
3. All staff must complete welfare and vulnerability training. This is to include ‘Ask for Angela’ Scheme (as long as it is still in operation).  The training is to be carried out at least once every 12 months and written records of the training must be kept for inspection by Cambridgeshire Police or an authorised officer of a responsible authority.
4. Prominent, clear and legible notices shall be displayed at the exit, requesting patrons departing to respect the needs of local residents and to leave the premises and the area quietly.
5. Staff will take reasonable steps to ensure that customers do not take partly consumed alcoholic products or drinking receptacles away from the premises.
6. No customers carrying opened bottles of alcoholic drink upon entry shall be admitted to premises at any time.
7. Any outside seating area will be closely monitored, and tables promptly cleared of items after customer use.
8. All alcohol sales will be delivered to seated customers by way of waiter/waitress service.
9. An Incident Report Log and Refusals register are to be maintained. These documents shall be kept on the premises at all times and shall be produced to an authorized person on request.
10. A written delegation of authority record will be kept at the premises whereby non personal licence holders are authorised to make sales on behalf of the Designated Premises Supervisor.
11. Digital CCTV with appropriate recording equipment shall be installed, operated and maintained throughout the premises internally to cover all public areas with sufficient numbers of cameras agreed with Cambridgeshire Police. This shall include cameras covering the external frontage of the premises. The system will be switched on and live during all times that the public have access to the premises for licensable activities. The CCTV images will record and display dates and times, and these times will be checked regularly to ensure their accuracy and will be changed when British Summer Time starts and ends. The CCTV at exit points will record a clear facial image of every person entering in any light condition. Footage shall be stored  ...  view the full decision text for item 5.
